Sing a new song to the Lord;
    sing his praise in the meeting of his people.

    Let the people of Jerusalem rejoice because of their King.
³ They should praise him with dancing.
    They should sing praises to him with tambourines and harps.
⁴ The Lord is pleased with his people;
    he saves the humble.
⁵ Let those who worship him rejoice in his glory.
    Let them sing for joy even in bed!

⁶ Let them shout his praise
    with their two-edged swords in their hands.
⁷ They will punish the nations
    and defeat the people.
⁸ They will put those kings in chains
    and those important men in iron bands.
⁹ They will punish them as God has written.
    God is honored by all who worship him.

Praise the Lord!
